A Quiet Life in the Country (Lady Hardcastle Mysteries, #1)
by: T.E. Kinsey
"What fun! This was a light-hearted mystery with a great cast of characters. The two protagonists were so charming and interesting, and their relationship is so funny. Their attitude towards social/gender norms of the day (and other people's reactions to these attitudes) were modern to the point of being anachronistic. But I didn't mind - it made them more relatable. I'll allow it!"

The Bombay Prince (Perveen Mistry #3)
by: Sujata Massey
"I think part of my issue with this book is user error - I didn't listen to the audio and I didn't take the time to get as immersed in the setting as I did with the last two. But also the writing felt stilted and awkward.
I don't think I'm giving up on Perveen yet, but we'll see."

Winter Garden
by: Kristin Hannah
"I loved reading about a time / period / place I know nothing about: 1930s/40s Russia and the siege of Leningrad. It was a truly harrowing moment in history.
Unfortunately, that was only about 2/5 of the book. The rest was a modern story framework setup to allow the telling of the other story. It felt weak and unnecessary. I'd rather have focused in on the historical story, even if it was super grim, than be dragged along with modern characters I never came to care for."
